I have been pondering about Adobe’s Air product for some time. I currently use tweetdeck which is an air application I use to handle my Facebook and twitter accounts. I really enjoy it and decided I would make my home security system an Air application. But I needed to start somewhere.

I remembered a clock tutorial from Adobe’s Devnet and decided it would be a cool place to start. So I opened the example (time2) and modified it to have a transparent background and added an event listener so you could drag the clock around the desktop… Give it a try and let me know what you think…

You may need to install Air first, Do that here

Thanks for reading
